Trigonometry Identities: cos(x +/- y) = cos(x)cos(y) -/+ sin(x)sin(y)

in hive-196037 •  2 years ago  (edited)


In this video I derive addition and subtraction identities, cos(x+y) and cos(x-y), using the Law of Cosines and the Pythagorean Theorem. This identity is very useful in all of mathematics and is used in the derivations of many trigonometric derivatives and integrals.

I don't always prove the cosine addition and subtraction identities but when I do I usually use both the law of cosines and the Pythagorean theorem in the proof ;)
